Abstract
- Facial Expression Recognition (FER) is a long-standing but challenging research problem in computer vision. Existing approaches mainly focus on single-label emotional prediction, which cannot handle the complex multi-label FER task because of the coupling behavior of multiple emotions on a single facial image. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel Self-supervised Exclusive-Inclusive Interactive Learning (SEIIL) method to facilitate discriminative multi-label FER in the wild, which can effectively handle the coupled multiple sentiments with limited unconstrained training data. Specifically, we construct an emotion disentangling module to capture the inclusive and exclusive characteristics of facial expressions, which can decouple the compound numerous emotions on an image. Moreover, an adaptively-weighted ensemble technique is conceived to aggregate category-level latent exclusive embeddings, and then a conditional adversarial interactive learning module is designed to fully leverage the complementary between the inclusive and formulated latent representations. Furthermore, to tackle the insufficient data for training, we introduce a self-supervised learning strategy to augment the amount and diversity of facial images, which can endow the model with advanced generalization ability. Under this strategy, the proposed two modules can be concurrently utilized in our SEIIL to jointly handle the coupled emotions and alleviate the overfitting problem. Extensive experimental results on six databases illustrate the superb performance of our method against state-of-the-art baselines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
